ODBDSLC145 A Blessed New Beginning

Hello Friends!! I hope you are all doing well!! Today I am popping in to share a creation I made for the Shining the Light challenge at Our Daily Bread Designs.

Our challenge is a sketch!!!

Here is my take on the sketch using Recipe Card Icons and All Occasion Sentiments from Our Daily Bread Designs. I truly feel white and cream cards are so elegant for weddings so I went with a cream color scheme. The embossing folder used is Blooms from Stampin Up (retired). The bow is created with Becca's Bow Maker and Wrinkled Ivory Ribbon from May Arts. The cake is embossed in silver, cut out and mounted on a Swiss Dots (Provocraft) background. The die used to frame the cake is the Spellbinders Venetian Motifs.

Card Recipe:
ODBD stamps Used: All Occasion Sentiments, Recipe Card Icons
Dies: Spellbinders Classic Circles, Spellbinders Venetian Motifs.
Embossing Folder: SU Blooms (retired), Provocraft Swiss Dots
Accessories: Becca's Bow Maker, Pearls
